[PATCH] input_event: Provide override for sparc64

[PATCH] input_event: Provide override for sparc64

[Deepa Dinamani]

The usec part of the timeval is defined as
__kernel_suseconds_t	tv_usec; /* microseconds */

Arnd noticed that sparc64 is the only architecture
that defines __kernel_suseconds_t as int rather than long.

This breaks the current y2038 fix for kernel as we only
access and define the timeval struct for non-kernel use cases.
But, this was hidden by an another typo in the use of __KERNEL__
qualifier.

Fix the typo, and provide an override for sparc64.

Fixes: 152194fe9c3f ("Input: extend usable life of event timestamps to 2106 on 32 bit systems")

Ping.


This is required for the proper functioning of the y2038 additions to input event.

Sorry for not having looked at this earlier, I just realized that this
is a mistake
in user space: uapi headers are not allowed to reference CONFIG_* symbols,
since the headers are supposed to be configuration independent and the
CONFIG_* namespace might clash with user space identifiers.

The correct check appears to be

#if defined(__sparc__) && defined(__arch64__)

That is correct.

OK. Deepa, could you please send me a fixup as I already pushed out
the original patch?

Thanks.

Ok, I’m traveling. I will post an update in a couple of days.

Thanks,
